Our house has been in full "off to college" mode in the past week. Both of my girls are living in apartments this year and I do believe they enjoy decorating as much as I do!
One of the things we saw that would be perfect for their walls were some city posters from HomeGoods. There was one for Paris and another for London.
The price tag was not in a college student's budget... even from HomeGoods! Instead, we decided to take pictures and try to replicate the art.Here's what we ended up with... pretty close to the original, if I don't say so myself! I have to give credit to Kim Klassen... this deisgn uses one of her incredible textures which she generously shares as freebies on her Texture Lovin List.
I've made an 8x10 version of the Paris poster that you can download and print if you like. You can find it here. That's what I have to share this week...
And if you liked Paris... you'll love London {available by clicking here}.

The fabulous features from last week's party begin with Lavender Garden Cottage. I am a huge fan of vintage luggage and this post brings on suitcase envy! On top of that, check out how she has styled her photo with the lace and bench... beautiful!
My favorite thing about this flea market booth styled by Stacey at A Sort of Fairytale is the strings of flashcard like words! Her booth from Kane County Fairgrounds Flea Market is adorable!
Lynda at Something Created Every Day shows off more of my favorite things... bling! I would love to have stumbled upon this sale and been able to come home with these pretties!
This Chicken Mansion by The Vintage Bag Lady is over the top... you can tell these chickens are living the good life, in style! I love all the beautiful details.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Mary! Very generous of you to share it! I've saved it and I'm hoping to use it once we are moved in to our downsized home. I will have an actual craft/creative space where I hope to have a lot of the stuff I love.

Nice blings :) I do agree. I love your posts and the way you write. Thank you for telling us about all these fab things. I am a more of a gossip addict though and for me who is wearing what celebrity handbag is the peak of the day, but I ahve do admit that your writting is very catchy :)
